April Fool's Day Weather

I THOUGHT SPRING WAS HERE. It was 31 Mar....the roads were clear - not dry - but not snowy. The snow storm of hast weekend had turned to rain....patches of mud were emerging, lost garbage was reappearing....


Sad deflated snowman
The ginormous sledding hill/fortress out our door had melted from "roof high" to fence high...and it was muddy, and broken sleds and such were starting to appear as it thawed.....note the barn roof. 
But then...who would guess? Sleeveless dresses and white sandals in the BX - 1 April on the calendar - Palm Sunday.....

You could go talk to JAG - anything you say to them is confidential since you are then their client when you are in their office.

As far as snow, I can remember wearing snow boots on more than one Easter growing up in CT... and I think Misawa is further north on the globe :)
